Quick show of the notes i have on this player.

LAG
RANGE : ANY 2 INCLUDING PIC AND LOW NUMBER
MOVES: PRE FLOP LIMP RAISE WITH ACES EVERY TIME
LIKES TO OVERKILL POT IF BLUFFING
BLUFFS ALOT
WILL CHASE BACKDOOR FLUSH DRAWS
HU OR FOLD
TPTK ENOUGH TO FELT

With these notes in mind i had this hand against him, im not sure if odds where correct for me to call flop and should i have re raised more pre?? I know i won this one but that was purely on reads is this a losing play in long run?? (i think it is thats why i posted in clinic)

    I c bet flop, rep the queen, its not a bad flop to c bet. Readless i fold turn, but with the reads you have its a snap call surely if they always over bet pot when bluffing? although because of stack size maybe they wud shove for value?

    yeah that was in back of my mind on the shove tbh i think this was played badly even with the reads.
    And if i c-bet the flop and he shoves can i ever call?

    c bet flop - continuation bet on the flop after raising pre-flop

    rep the queen - represent the queen, bet as though you have it etc.


    shove pre flop - push allin before the flop

     limp - just calls the big blind instead of raising/folding


    c-bet the flop and he shoves can i ever call? - if they put a continuation bet in on the flop can they call if the other guy goes allin.

    cbettin - same as c-bet

    c/fing - check/folding

    jamming - pushing all in, (i think)

    Hi,

    Sorry I have no advice but seeking some answers from this, I am a new player to Sky Poker and not played for long.

    Sorry if this is such a newbie question but I am looking through some of these forum posts and would like help with some of the jargon, slang and shortened words for the Poker plays e.g:-

    c bet flop
    rep the queen
    shove
    pre flop limp raise

    c-bet the flop and he shoves can i ever call?
    cbettin
    c/fing
    jamming

    Thanks in advance

    I did try but nothing real easy for self explanations came up.  And I thought from someone who has maybe been where I have when they started could put some simple answers!

    C bet flop - Continuation bet on flop

    Rep the queen - Represent having the queen in your hand

    Shove pre flop - Go all in pre flop (AIPF)

    Limp raise c-bet the flop - call initial 1 xbb to enter pot, raise opponents pre flop bet, continue showing strength by betting on the flop whether you have hit or not.

    C/fing - Check/folding
    Jamming - All in
